Supreme Court Short List

As you may have read or seen, on Friday Justice David Souter informed the White House that he's going to retire from the Supreme Court after the Court's current session. President Obama said he wanted to have a replacement on the bench by the time the court reconvenes in October.

But what is the President looking for in this replacement? According to President Obama, he will seek "somebody with a sharp, independent mind and a record of excellence and integrity. That person must honor traditions and respect the judicial process."

We've decided to take a brief timeout from music and give you a look at who we believe are on the White House's short list to replace Justice Souter on the Supreme Court.



Bobby Brown - Who knows more about the judicial system than the King of R&B? The only person that's seen the inside of a courtroom more than Brown is maybe Todd Bridges.


Perez Hilton - From Miss USA judge to Supreme Court Justice ... makes sense to me. It should make for an entertaining confirmation hearing. I suspect that someone might be called a bitch at some point during confirmation too.


Judge Marilyn Millian - You get a lot with this nomination. She's a hispanic woman plus she's the judge of the People's Court. The People's Court is kind of of the same as the Supreme Court right? Sounds like win/win to me.


Oprah Winfrey - We all know about the "Oprah touch" of turning things into gold (or making them highly desirable after she backs products and people). Imagine what the Oprah touch would do for controversial cases. "Oh, Oprah approved it, then it must be good." The confirmation should be fun too, especially when folks find out they are getting Oprah's favorite things.


Eliott Spitzer - Remember the former crime fighting Governor of New York? Well, I hear that dude is looking for a job and a spot on the highest court in the land might be away to revive his tarnished image. Plus apparently he likes to hang out in DC.
